Sadie - Shepherd and Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler Dog for Adoption in Pilot Point, Texas

Hi, I’m Sadie! I’m an 8-year-old, 60-pound Australian Shepherd/Heeler mix looking for a cozy place to call home.

I’m a laid-back, slow-moving girl who loves cuddles and taking life easy. I get along with other dogs, do okay with some cats, and would do best in a home with older kids. I’m potty trained, walk well on a leash, and even know how to sit! I may be an older gal, but I still have plenty of love to give. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion, I might just be your girl!
